"What a great Lodge, some really nice people. And they have a community garden out back, so I got to do a little weeding and picked a couple of tomatoes to make fried green tomatoes. I wish I could get back there and time for pasties on Wednesday night, but I don't think that's going to happen. Next time! Thanks again!"
